I will tell you. He is a brother to the uncle of my untie's friend's grandmother's son who is igbo. there, SEE

I simply don't see how President Obama is going to conduct his African policy without Nigeria. Ordinarily, the U.S. would have opted for South Africa, but that country is looking more and more like Nigeria these days. He is willing to talk to those that most vex U.S. interests around the world and is sharing banter with Hugo Chavez and other corrupt/authoritative leaders in the Middle East and elsewhere. Who elected China's President and government to which America needs to defer in many important areas today? (N.B. I do not supporting non-democratic rule, in fact I despise them.) I just don't see the need for Obama to avoid Nigeria, as long as he makes sure to express the fact that America is not satisfied with Yaradu'a's performance so far.

'Debo

I thought all along that Nigeria was a failed state. Can Nigeria guarantee continuous electricity supply for even one hour Obama may be on the ground if ever he visits. Who will guarantee his security when all the security organs wil be fighting MEND in the Niger. Give Ghana a break, the country is way advanced over naija (democratically speaking).

Whatt happened to Kenya. I had thought that his first African trip would be to his fatherland. How wrong.

I'd marry Rita Dominic if she looks for me. Someone tell her that

I wonder how much he will claim in damages and who will pay it.

Enugu is better if you consider the potential. Abuja na be nothing in future when power comes to the east. wait and see.

In Summary

Coach is confident that Kenya can beat Nigeria on June 5th.

This is a team that is capable of beating any team in Africa. They are not scared of any team which is a big positive in the side.”

These words could be considered braggadocio but when the are spoken by Twahir Mihiddin, newly named Harambee Stars assistant coach, you take notice, for he has been involved with the national team for over 20 years and counting.

The 50-year-old tactician was quietly named the local assistant to Antoine Hey over the weekend

Though Hey had indicated he preferred to get a young, former international just starting out in coaching to fill the position of local assistant coach, KFF senior vice chairman Titus Kasuve said Muhiddin’s appointment was a stop-gap measure.

“Muhiddin was proposed as the best man as we search for the young man Hey wants. We want to get it right and we will search thoroughly for a suitable person,” Kasuve said.

Chance of qualifying

“It is an honour to serve Harambee Stars. I am happy to serve in any capacity and I am looking forward to a good campaign,” Muhiddin who joined the Stars camp at Moi International Sports Centre, Kasarani, said.

Stars are preparing for their next World Cup qualifier fixtures away to Nigeria on June 6 and at home to Mozambique a fortnight later.

“We started badly with a home loss to Tunisia but are still in with a chance of qualifying.

“We need to do our home work well and we will get the desired results,” the vastly experienced Muhiddin said.

He should know what he is talking about when it comes to Africa football.

Muhiddin first joined the Harambee Stars set up as an assistant to Mohammed Kheri in 1989 where he helped guide the team to the 1990 African Cup of Nation in Algeria.

He was back at the same position between 1995 and 1996 as an assistant to Vojo Gardesevic and Reinhardt Fabisch between 1996 and 1997.

He finally got the big job in 2004 where he guided Stars to a fourth place finish at the Cecafa Senior Challenge Cup held in Addis Ababa.

He was however sacked the following year after a poor run in the African Cup of Nations qualifiers.

As he departed then, he said that without proper preparations and motivation the team would not go far.

“This team can go far. They just need good support and motivation,” he reiterated on Tuesday.

Harambee Stars, subject to funds, are scheduled to travel to German on May 18 for a two-week training camp before heading for Abuja for the June 5 showdown.

@ Aloy Emeka
Every igbo person can spell Emeka except you. That makes me to start wondering whether you are igbo in the first place.

Must he be Igbo to make a comment or misspell your name? What dimension of the topic is igbo and what other dimensions are Yoruba, Hausa, Ashanti etc. Get real

nigeria1@/

Is this your first encounter with satelite images? Why the over exuberance and why hijack a totally different topic with third rate google photos? Are you incapable of debate

Really. Check this out

Your post should be specific and say that only Nigerian Igbos are protesting against Obasanjo's lecture. Not all Nigerian are such ingrates to their retired leaders.

Only Igbos in London demonstrated against Obasanjo. They always have something against Obasanjo whose reign was not the worst as they make it appear. Silly anti Yoruba fury.

And she is cute too.

What was that about Yorubas fit only for taxi driving?

Now I am crossing my fingers for Rita Dominic's wedding if it comes. That Nollywood actress is more beautiful.

This link below gives such an impressive picture of Obama's Kenyan sister Auma whom he recognized on election victory speech.

Emeka Ojukwu was the leader Nigeria never got. he would have made a fine president and there are many like him in Igbo land.

Give Kenyans credit. At least they have succeeded where Nigerians cant
